2. On the Grave-stone of Mr. John May, a young Student in Divinity, who died after a lingering and painful Sickness, and was buried in Chessunt Church-yard, in Hertfordshire.
So sleep the saints, and cease to groan,When sin and death have done their worst.
Christ hath a glory like his own,
Which waits to clothe their waking dust.
